How to sort a table in Coda using a button or a select without opening it?

1

Hello everyone,
I’m working with a table in Coda and I’d like to sort it automatically using a button or a select, without having to open the table view and apply the sort manually. Does anyone know how to achieve this? Is there a way to use a button or a select to change a table’s sorting externally?
I would really appreciate any suggestions, examples, or tips. Thanks in advance! :folded_hands:

Hi Carlos,

An option would be :

  • to create a Select control with the name of the columns you want to sort according to
  • to create a helper column to take the value of the column you selected on the control
  • to sort the table according to that helper column

In that way, every time you change the selected column, the table would be reordered.
